Curious if anyone with an iPad has had a chance to try this out? Would love to get your feedback!

Hey Rob,

I have checked it out, and I have to say, the app itself looks and works fantastic. My only issue, is all the posters are of that same "style" of art, and if you're not a fan of that style, there's not much that's going to keep people coming back. It seems pretty selective and I was hoping for more then just limited edition posters. Do you have plans to even add as many official posters for tours, in their original style and creation?

This is some good feedback and questions. We launched last week with about a dozen different designers from the United States, the United Kingdom and Canada. We will continue to expand this our breadth of designers and the selection of posters available. We're also working on ways to make it easier to follow a particular designer.

In fact, the posters you see in Rock Show today are all official posters from the band's tours. Band management generally works with a venue promotor and a designer to have the poster made. Occasionally, a designer gets to do a complete tour's poster like Animal Rummy's 2008 Raconteurs set, but in general a band's concert posters have different designers for different tour dates.

We've added a grip of new posters since last checking in. One designer who recently joined the app is Ames Bros. They're responsible for a posters from a number of major international acts including Pearl Jam.

If you haven't yet, please try out Rock Show Concert posters, a universal app for the iPad and iPhone.
